Chen Kuan spoke calmly. Although his heart was leaning towards the civil servants, he had to keep in step with the emperor on major issues of right and wrong.
In addition, what he said about how to deal with Xie Qian sounded condescending and inhumane to Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others.
"Isn't it too hasty to convict the cabinet bachelor based on the above-mentioned hearings and the two memorials from the Yanwu Hall about Tingju?" Li Dongyang argued, "Is it too hasty?" We shouldn’t wait until the next year to discuss or argue with the superiors to give Xie Qian some opportunities to defend himself.”
Chen Kuan smiled and waved his hands and said, “Mr. Li Ge, what do you mean? I understand, and I believe His Majesty also understands. Even if you are unwilling to do so, don’t you think that this is the best ending? If you continue to make trouble, I’m afraid it will be a shame.”
You are too embarrassed to say it. , you are making such a fuss today, it seems that you are fighting for Xie Qian, but it is closer to putting Xie Qian on the fire.
The final result is that instead of pulling Zhang Zhou down, you will trap yourselves in it, and Xie Qian will also be tortured to death.
"That's it." Chen Kuan saw that Li Dongyang and Liu Jian didn't want to answer him, so he politely said, "Today is a day when everything is peaceful. I hope you guys don't make trouble." After all, the government and the public are in harmony. Sometimes our family really hopes that it would be good if things were the same as before. But at this time, the situation will change, people's hearts will change, and His Majesty's expectations for the future of Ming Dynasty will change. It will also change, and we and other courtiers should also change according to the opportunity, why should we stick to our laurels?"
Li Dongyang's eyes also fell on Liu Jianjian, probably asking Liu Jian if today's matter was over.
We can’t expect Zhang Zhou to make mistakes on his own initiative. This time can be regarded as their initiative in adversity. Although they failed, they can learn lessons.
Liu Jian and Li Dongyang left the palace gate on foot. There was obviously an official sedan there, but they did not want to ride on it.
Maybe I am not a comrade in your eyes, so you don’t believe me.
Chen Kuan would not argue too much with Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others. Before he left, he politely went over to say hello to a few people, and officials from the DPRK and China also went to salute and greet him. .
Liu Jian continued to look gloomy.
After hesitating, Liu Jian looked in the direction of the palace entrance and felt a great sense of frustration. Finally, he shook his head and said, "Just think of it for Yu Qiao."
That's probably what it means.
Li Dongyang said, "What happened this time will make people feel distracted, and something must be done. But I don't know if Zhang Bingkuan will come back soon after the new year. If not, some things can still be done." ”
Yang Jiefu, also known as Yang Tinghe.
It was more about the emperor's trust in Zhang Zhou. Zhang Zhou was just doing things again and again, but he didn't say that he did so many things to control the government and not give others a way to survive. He was still different from ordinary powerful officials.
Li Dongyang said, "LetIf you withdraw, withdraw, will they give me face or my official position?"
Li Dongyang said, "I hope so. ”
This is to remind Li Dongyang to avoid his sharp edges for the time being and cultivate his own people first, and then use some external forces to “kill” Zhang Zhou.
No matter who he is. Whatever the mistake was, it was the Kong family.
Li Zhaoxian looked a little embarrassed.
No one from some yamen, such as Honglu Temple, was present.
And General Affairs Minister Shen Lu, who was originally best at conducting diplomatic relations on such festive occasions, was not present today.
Li Dongyang sighed, “What we are doing today is just for the final purpose. Fighting for it has hurt the hearts of people in the DPRK and should not be allowed to do so. ”
Liu Jiandao, “In Eunuch Chen’s opinion, the Ming Dynasty was flawed in the past.”
I am going against you if you use my last words to question me
p>
Today is a big festival. Whose purpose is to come to the palace to have a banquet? If this is the goal, so many ministers in the court will not come here only if they can come or not. A few.
Cheng Minzheng came over and said, "Lin Butang, you don't really think that this palace banquet is so easy to eat. Now that the etiquette is there, there is probably no way out, and sometimes there is still no way out." It should be settled as soon as possible. "Guys, what do you think?"
Originally, the civil servants advanced and retreated together to fight the emperor to death, but now no one listens to him.
Ma Wensheng said, "In that case, then It’s time to go back early today. Recently, various yamen should leave people on duty so that if something happens, they can deal with it as early as possible. It's time to leave."
It is said that there is a banquet today, but in fact it is no different from giving an order to expel guests.
"Besides, even if he waits until he makes a mistake, when will that happen? , if the powerful ministers remain firm for a long time, or if there are those who are treacherous and harming the country, a little dissatisfaction can be resolved and eradicated without external force. I am afraid that this matter will wait in vain. "
I remind you tactfully that you should act according to the situation and build a good relationship with the emperor first. Why can't you listen?
"Yes. "Li Dongyang nodded and said, "I have seen it before. When asked about matters in the government and the public, he still has very unique opinions. Among so many people in Hanyuan, he and Wang Jizhi have the strongest abilities. It will be a matter of time for Wang Jizhi to join the cabinet. If If Yang Jiefu joins the cabinet, I'm afraid some people will be dissatisfied. After all, there are a few people who are above Jie Fu in terms of qualifications. ”
“Have you seen Mr. Jie recently?” Liu Jian suddenly asked.
The engagement of his daughter to Kong Wenshao, the son of the Kong family, was broken off. It seemed that his family was in charge. After all, it was the emperor who canceled it.
Liu Jian still didn’t answer. “It’s not right to say so. "Li Dongyang actually wanted to correct Liu Jian.
His hand was still clutching the joint memorial that he had not punched in his arms, and he sighed helplessly.
Li Dongyang seemed to be asking questions knowingly. .
But from the perspective of the world’s scholars., Li Dongyang, in this matter, is tantamount to letting down the Kong family. The family wanted to gain status in the court by marrying you, Li Dongyang. You initially disliked them, and finally canceled the marriage. This is not an obvious statement that you don't respect the Kong family. Things
The Kong family is a model for scholars in all dynasties of the Kong family.
This made Li Dongyang very angry.
"Didn't you say there was a banquet?" Lin Han walked over with a smile and said, "It's rare to come here today, so we shouldn't leave in a hurry."
But Liu Jian couldn't see it. At this point, I knew I couldn't continue today.
"If the situation continues in the coming year, I'm afraid it won't be long before people from the official department to all the yamen in the court will start to move closer to Zhang Bingkuan, and then Zhang Bingkuan will be able to control everything. Chao Gang, he still has concerns at the moment, but by then, who in the court can rival him?" Li Dongyang continued to express his opinion.
Liu Jiandao, "Bin Zhi, don't you think that what you and I can't do, maybe others can do it?"
Ma Wensheng sighed, "Speaking of which, there are only a few people in the six departments. That's all, why are there so many people from the sixth subject who haven't arrived yet?"
Liu Jian seems to have a long-term vision, at least to Li Dongyang's ears.
"I came here once a year ago." Li Zhaoxian thought for a while and replied, "But my father has said it first. He will draw a clear line with the Kong family recently. After all, the younger sister no longer has anything to do with them. This matter We still have to avoid it. But father, my younger sister’s marriage has been delayed. Don’t you pay attention?”
Historically, the reason why Yang Tinghe rose to power and became a powerful minister was also from the perspective of inheritance, which was passed down by Li Dongyang. People from this faction are chosen as successors.
In the eyes of the emperor, those who stay for the banquet are not good people, but those who are dismissed on the spot are truly good ministers.
"It's over." Although Liu Jian was very reluctant, he still had no choice but to say it, "Since so many people came in front of the palace gate today, we should have known that this would be the result. Your Majesty did not He closed his eyes and listened, but he was very clear about our intentions, which is also a good thing. This at least shows that if Zhang Bingkuan is doing something that is harmful to the country and the people, His Majesty will immediately notice and respond."
Involved. When it comes to traditional civil servants, the emperor knows it immediately and can respond in time.
After Chen Kuan left, people at the scene also began to leave in scattered pieces. Some people came to give Liu Jian a final speech before leaving, probably waiting for Liu Jian to persuade them to stay. If Liu Jianfei said he would stick to it today, the people who came were probably ready to advance and retreat together with Liu Jian.
"Yu Qiao was sent out as an official, guess where he will go"
Liu Jiandao "The reason for the separation of people in the court is related to my failure to do anything. From the beginning of Zhang Bingkuan's entry into the court , all we can think about is that he checks and balances with Li Guang and others. When he truly becomes another Li Guang, we can only count on the next person who can check and balance him. If this continues, I am afraid that there will always be people in the government and the public. The powerful ministers are in power."
This time, Liu Jian became much older.His posture also changed, and he staggered a little when walking, and even the steps he took seemed so weak.
You were the one who asked me to prepare, and you were the one who asked me to evacuate. Now they are blaming me.
They are not here to visit me. I am here to warm you up. Jin'er
Just when Li Zhaoxian was silent and was about to bow and leave, Li Dongyang said, "Have anyone from the Kong family been here recently?"
"Our family has no such intention." Chen Kuan is also a little embarrassed.
"Go back." Liu Jian said, "Don't go anywhere or see anyone these days. It's time to sort out your thoughts. In the next one or two years, our road will become more and more bumpy. It's difficult to do it."
Li Dongyang said, "Most of them haven't arrived yet."
Liu Jiandao, "When do you think Zhang Bingkuan will make such a mistake?"
Li Dongyang frowned and said, "What do you mean by that?"
Although it is debatable to say that Zhang Zhou is a traitor, from our standpoint, we should classify him as such.
Li Dongyang asked "What about Yu Qiao?"
In the eyes of these veterans, the mainstay of the court and the hope for the future must be those officials who dare to give direct advice. That is, people from the Sixth Section and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but today it seems that they all have appointments, and they don't come whether they should come or not, without even a reason.
But regarding Zhang Zhou, I don’t know if anyone dared to tell the emperor. Even if he did, the emperor would guard against Zhang Zhou just like he dealt with civil servants
He was too embarrassed to say it. , the emperor's observation of court affairs was biased.
“Alas,” Liu Jian sighed, “From what happened today, I suddenly realized that if we alone would be led by some people in the court in the future, Your Majesty, please listen to me. "No one can persuade me."
Originally, Ma Wensheng was not as stubborn as Liu Jian on this matter. He initiated it as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and then he dismissed it as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. , and it couldn’t be more appropriate.
"Withdrawal," Li Dongyang said to Li Zhaoxian unceremoniously.
Li Dongyang said, "Didn't I say that as long as Zhang Bingkuan makes a mistake, as long as there is a rift between him and His Majesty, everything will fall into place?"
It is almost impossible to say that the emperor is polite before fighting. .
Li Zhaoxian said, "Recently, I have been wanting to go to Beijing to practice, but my father doesn't agree."
Liu Jian would feel a little harsh when hearing these words.
But if you want to classify Zhang Zhou as a powerful official, where does his power lie?
But I saw that my son and daughter were arranging celebrations for the family. There was a festive banquet at home that day, and Li Dongyang had many Disciples and former officials would come to visit. For Li Dongyang, who was good at making friends with young people in the court, this was almost an annual Spring Festival repertoire.
"Haha." Ma Wensheng smiled bitterly.
On the contrary, my position is similar or even the same as yours.
Do the inheritance well.
Liu Jiandao said, “Three years ago when Jiefu returned to his hometown, he and Zhang Bingkuan did not meet each other.There is a direct conflict. Among so many people in the DPRK, I think he can best demonstrate the integrity of a civil servant. Since there is no way to shake His Majesty's blind faith in Zhang Bingkuan from the front, we should do what needs to be done. "
"This"
But the problem is that he himself has no good strategy.
Li Dongyang was also emotionally affected by Liu Jian, and returned home with a little depression. .
Liu Jian did not answer, it seemed that this was not his concern at all.
Li Zhaoxian was a little surprised and said, "Father, many people have already sent in greetings, saying that they will meet today." Come here, you are”
It’s not that he doesn’t want to comment, but he is tired. Today’s events have dealt a huge blow to him.
Li Dongyang couldn’t answer.
“It’s none of your business. "Li Dongyang just asked the Kong family, but he didn't expect his son to make an issue of Li Jue's marriage.
If powerful ministers were so easy to deal with, it wouldn't be the case that every time a treacherous minister appeared, the government and the public would be upset. There is no way to deal with the situation.
"The child is still young," Li Dongyang said.
Liu Jian certainly knew that the people were distracted and the team was even more difficult to lead.
"What do you think should be done?"
Li Dongyang said, "If the people come in an orderly manner today, even if it is His Majesty's intention, and Chen Kuan comes forward in person, we will not be afraid, but Under the circumstances, we had to choose to avoid it. This is not only for the future, but also for the present to protect those who should be protected, from Yu Qiao to the officials who spoke in the court. His Majesty sent these people to prison, which is actually knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger. ”
Liu Jian is also very optimistic about Yang Tinghe.
Having said this, Li Dongyang relaxed a little. After all, Li Zhaoxian has a son. He was only a few months old and he is still a son. Li Dongyang is considered to have a child.
But because of this, he feels that his son should give him more grandchildren, so he can rest assured that his son will go out to have a good life. Don't go, wait until your father can arrange your future. "Li Dongyang said, "You only look like a man when you have a family." End of chapter
